The transfer value for Alexander Isak has increased at Newcastle United because numerous top-level English football clubs, including Arsenal and Chelsea, along with Manchester United and Liverpool show considerable interest.
Throughout the Premier League season this year, Alexander Isak has maintained an extraordinary performance record with 17 goals and 5 assists across his 23 matches.
His complete play, together with match-winning abilities, have persuaded sports analysts to declare him the “best striker in England.”
Through his strong contributions, Hasak has led Newcastle United toward qualification for the Champions League while helping the team achieve remarkable success in the Carabao Cup final.
Isak was bought with£63 million from Real Sociedad to the Magpies where he established an unmatched effect on the team since his 2022 signing.
Can Any EPL Club Afford £160 Million For Alexander Isak?
European elite clubs appear fascinated by his performances which drive their attention towards acquiring him. The Arsenal leadership considers Alexander Isak as the perfect player who could help them achieve title success during Mikel Arteta’s time in charge.
The major Premier League squads, including Chelsea, Manchester United, and Liverpool,ol, have expressed interest in signing the rapid forward.
The Newcastle team recently elevated the value of their star striker Isak to a substantially higher £160 million while his initial market price sat between £100 million and £130 million.
Isak would enter history as one of the all-time most costly strikers because his £160 million valuation surpasses the contract prices of Neymar (Paris Saint-Germain’s £198 million deal in 2017) and Kylian Mbappe (£163 million PSG acquisition in 2018).
The £160 million transfer fee for Newcastle United presents a challenge too great for Arsenal to handle given their existing £105 million maximum expenditure on Declan Rice.
Chelsea tends to buy talents through cheaper arrangements for longer contract periods, which could pose problems for their Isak acquisition efforts.
All attention will focus on Newcastle United and Alexander Isak throughout the upcoming summer transfer window to determine whether any clubs will accept this high valuation to change his European football pathway.
